The topics in this chapter of the JavaHelp System User's Guide describe the aspects of the JavaHelp system of primary interest to application developers.
The JavaHelp system classes are distributed in the following JAR files. The
following redistributable JAR files are located in the javahelp\lib
folder:
jh.jar 
|
The standard library that includes everything needed to use the help viewer and the standard navigator types (TOC, index, full-text search). |
jhbasic.jar |
A subset of jh.jar that does not include support for
the full-text search engine. This subset might be useful for simple help
systems that do not require a full-text search database or for help systems
whose size is important. |
jhall.jar |
Includes all the JavaHelp system classes, including the tools required to create a search database. |
jsearch.jar |
The default full-text search engine used in the JavaHelp system. |
